Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a system for ventilating an internal-combustion engine crankcase as well as to such an internal-combustion engine, particularly having a V-shaped arrangement of the cylinders.
  • DE 101 54 669 A1 discloses an internal-combustion engine with at least two cylinder bank rows, in which oil separation chambers are provided on the interior side of the cylinder head covers for the crankcase ventilation.
  • the oil separation chambers are an integral component of the crankcase ventilation system.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a still further improved crankcase ventilation system and the connected separation of oil from the blow-by gases in order to finally be able to return purified blow-by gases to the suction system of the internal-combustion engine.
  • At least one separate oil separation module whose oil separation chambers constructed therein have first openings for the introduction of the blow-by gases and second openings for the return of the separated oil into the cylinder head and a V-shaped internal combustion engine on which the oil separation module is arranged between a cylinder head cover of a cylinder bank row and the air intake module.
  • crankcase ventilation can be further improved.
  • the oil separation chamber integrated in the component module can be constructed to have a larger volume. As a result, a longer ventilation path can be implemented for the blow-by gases, so that the efficiency of the oil separation is further improved.
  • the transfer of the blow-by gases from the cylinder head into the oil separation chamber takes place via openings which, relative to the longitudinal dimension of the oil separation chamber, are arranged essentially in the center, while second openings for the return of the separated lubricating oil into the cylinder head are provided at the two respective ends of the oil separation chamber.
  • the opening cross-section for the transfer of the blow-by gases into the oil separation chamber is larger than the opening cross-section for the separated lubricating oil.
  • valves So that the blow-by gases are forced to enter the oil separation chamber via the central opening provided in the oil separation chamber, the return flow openings provided for the lubricating oil are monitored in a simple manner by valves. These valves open up a connection to the cylinder head or the camshaft space only when lubricating oil has collected in this area.
  • the valve which, for example, has a mushroom shape, as a result of gravitational force, then opens up the opening and thus the return flow to the camshaft space.
  • partitioning webs are provided to guide the blow-by gas in a labyrinth-type manner from the intake to the exhaust.
  • This labyrinth-type guidance of the blow-by gases allows the space in the oil separation chamber to optimally utilized.
  • the lengthening of the path for the blow-by gases from the intake to the exhaust connected therewith results in a further calming of the blow-by gases and thus to a better separation of the lubricating oil.
  • the component module for the oil separation has a trough-shaped basic body which is closed by a separate lid.
  • a space-saving arrangement for such an oil separation module which is suitable for a multi-row internal-combustion engine with a V-shaped arrangement of the cylinders, is obtained when one component module respectively is arranged in each case between a cylinder head cover of an internal-combustion engine and an air intake module placed centrally in the interior of the two cylinder bank rows.
  • the two oil separation chambers integrated in the oil separation modules are mutually connected by means of a hose assembly.
  • a pressure regulator is fastened whose output leads by way of a connection line to the suction pipe of the internal-combustion engine.
  • An additional oil separator is connected in front of the pressure regulator.
  • the oil separator as viewed in the flow direction of the blow-by gases, connects to the oil separation chamber integrated in the second oil separation module and is combined with the pressure regulator to form a constructional unit.

  • the internal-combustion engine constructed as a V8-engine has two cylinder bank rows 2 , 3 which are both integrated in a crankcase top half 4 which is adjoined by crankcase bottom half 5 further developed as a crankshaft bearing bridge.
  • a crankshaft 6 is disposed between the crankcase top half 4 and the crankcase bottom half 5 .
  • the two cylinder bank rows 2 , 3 have two respective cylinder heads 7 , 8 in which, among others, the intake camshafts 9 , 10 as well as the exhaust camshafts 11 , 12 are respectively accommodated and required for controlling the intake and exhaust valves respectively.

  • Both cylinder heads 7 , 8 are closed off toward the top by a cylinder head cover 16 , 18 respectively.
  • an air intake module 20 is arranged in which eight individual intake pipes 22 are constructed.
  • a central opening 24 constructed on the face side at the air intake module 20 and to which a suction pipe is connected, combustion air is fed by way of the individual intake pipes 22 to the individual cylinders.
  • one oil separation module 26 , 28 respectively is arranged.
  • the two oil separation modules 26 , 28 are integrated in a crankcase ventilation system which, in a generally well known manner, is responsible for the guidance of the blow-by gases, which are transferred during the combustion or during the compression cycle into the crankcase space of the internal-combustion engine, to the outside thereof and back to the intake system of the internal-combustion engine respectively.
  • the blow-by gases are caused to flow from the crankcase space into the camshaft space 17 of each cylinder head 7 , 8 .
